Summer School in Pharmaceutical Analysis (SSPA) 2017

The Summer School in Pharmaceutical Analysis (SSPA) is organized by the Intradivisional group of Pharmaceutical Analysis, Division of Medicinal Chemistry, Italian Chemical Society (SCI) and sponsored by the European Federation for Medicinal Chemistry (EFMC).

SSPA is mainly addressed to researchers and PhD students focusing on the different aspects of analysis in drug discovery and development and in drug manufacturing. The course is open to a maximum of 80 students and is held in English.

SSPA 2017 will focus on “Advanced Analytical Methodologies for Biotechnological and Biological medicinal products”. SSPA will start with a regulatory session, followed by four main sessions concerning:

Analytical methods in ADMET studies

ADMET studies of small molecules

ADMET studies of large biologics

Case studies

SSPA 2017 participants can choose between two registration packages: an all inclusive registration or a basic registration, the latter does not include accommodation. Provided that maximum number (80 participants) is not reached, all inclusive registrations will be accepted until September 1, 2017. After this date, only basic registration will be accepted.

The list of confirmed speakers, as well as information on registrationand abstract submission can be found on the SSPA 2017 website: http://sspaweb.com

Please keep in mind that immediately following SSPA there will be the 17thInternational Meeting on "Recent Developments in Pharmaceutical Analysis" (RDPA2017): http://www.rdpa2017.com/
